Wei Jingsheng, a Chinese dissident known as 'the father of Chinese democracy', is among the 176 nominees who lost to Mr. Obama, but said he was honored to have been edged out by "a man of such staggering accomplishments." "I was imprisoned more than 15 years for speaking out against a totalitarian communist regime," said Mr. Wei, "A book of my essays was published from my writings, initially scribbled on toilet paper in jail. But I have to admit that Barack Obama has written two books and given hundreds of autobiographical speeches with thinner material than that. I bow respectfully to the father of global peace."
